Block Timers with Randomisation and a Questions per Page

I have developed a survey with a timer for a block of questions. The questions are randomized (I used the advanced randomiser options to ensure the timer still works whilst using the randomizer). However, I now want to have 1 question per page in the block AND maintain the timer for the total time to complete the whole block. I tried to do this with the advanced randomizer (using 1 question per page and have the timer question fixed as the first question). However the timer does not seem to be working now. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
Hoping I don't need to create a block for each question!

Thanks

Olivia

    Hi,
    You can use Q_TotalDuration survey metadata which tracks the time spent on survey in seconds and using Math operations you can get the time spent on this block. please refer the below link.

    Hi

    Thanks for your message. I am not really following. This is my first survey I have done on Qualtrics so this is all new! The only way I can think of calculating the time for my block (22 questions), giving each question its own page and using randomizer is to create a block for each question. I does seem a very long way to do things. I have 4 conditions so that is a total of 88 blocks!

    Any other help greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
    Olivia
